CFLs in clamp lights. Economical, good for low tech tanks or small ones.

Lighting for 20 gallon tank?

Hello, I'm starting a new 20 gallon dirted planted tank, no CO2.
I was wondering what some are some good light fixtures I could use?

I had great help on my last tank from the forum, and I'm glad to be asking questions here
